[Lethal Dosage]

This is a freeware game I found a few days ago.
A pretty well made RPG game, takes place in a "fantasy" world of medieval times. Here's the description I copied off their site..

"You will build a party of four characters and each can be customized as desired. different character classes play off of each others strengths and there are 22 to choose from, there are over 60 different unique skills to choose from when building your characters, you can start the epic adventure from one of two different villages. each is unique and offers very different quests/challenges. there are 26 different villages, outposts and guard towers for the party to visit across m'ystifa. each has a variety of NPC's to meet to gather information or quests. there are dozens of shops where the party can trade it's loot or purchase new items
 
   
Each zone is hand crafted and features a variety of landscapes like mountains, forests, swamps, tundra, volcanic wastelands plus many more. each map is fully labeled and you can create notes for them to remember things you might want to come back and do later
 
   
the kensall mayor kicks off the adventure. each npc is scripted by hand with multiple options and script paths. they also remember your deeds and missteps. you control four party members, up to two pets or hirelings in battle with up to 10 creatures that work together to defeat you
 
   
each party member can wield up to two weapons, a shield, fishing pole, mining pick, casting device, plus a full suit of armor and various pieces of jewelry and relics. there are 375 unique quests to complete across the world of m'ystifa. each is hand crafted and many of them can be completed multiple ways
 
   
There are over 1100 unique spells to learn and wield. there are over 450+ unique recipes to learn from 8 different disciplines including armor smithing, weapon smithing, tailoring, jewel crafting, bone crafting, fletching, cooking and alchemy
 
   
Parties can hire help to fight alongside them in battle or seek an advisor to impart valuable wisdom/benefits. creatures drop all sorts of treasure for the party to use or sell for gold."

And finally, the link.

Do you mean 1 or 2?

That's odd, the author claims his game is the biggest, greatest, most ambitious RPG on the internet (as well as claiming it's 6 years old, which I believe), yet I, for one, never even heard of it. Fascinating.

I... hm.

random adventures
uber creatures
notes summary screen
new game tips
many fixes and other enhancements

random adventures

I'm trying to look for the stealth parody vibe but I'm just not getting it.

The name.
It exudes generic. :I

[a1s]

did anyone try to download it? The 1.54 Patch doesn't seem to download for me...

[Megaman]

The game is either a massive ego trip or a stealth parody.

[ductape]

is there even a screenshot?

[Dakk]

There is, on a gallery in the link provided on the OP, it looks rather... Dull to be honest. Like a browser rpg except its not in a browser.

Heyas!

I am the author of the Legends of M'ystifa series but for clarity, wanted to add a few points and to answer some of the questions. All of the software I develop is free as are all future updates and releases.

Legends of M'ystifa 2
Legends of M'ystifa 2 was released in 2011 (for the PC). It is up to version 1.07 and the full install and latest patch can be obtained here: http://www.jjcwhodat.com/projects/lom2/downloads.asp

This adventure/RPG is in active development and the latest patch came out just over a week ago. It includes a few key new features, such as:

* random adventures
* uber creatures
* notes summary screen
* new game tips
* many fixes and other enhancements

It features the largest game world ever built for a PC RPG and could take up to 100 hours to complete. This is a full-featured RPG (not a browser game - that wouldn't even be possible) and you can read about all of the details here: http://www.jjcwhodat.com/projects/lom2/features.asp

For screenshots, visit here: http://www.jjcwhodat.com/projects/lom2/gallery.asp

Legends of M'ystifa 1
Legends of M'ystifa 1 was released in 2004 (for the PC). It is up to version 1.54 and the full install and latest patch can be obtained here: http://www.jjcwhodat.com/projects/lom/downloads.asp




Thanks to everyone who has tried LOM2 out so far! Be sure to pop over to the game message boards http://www.jjcwhodat.com/boards/cats.asp?ID=8 to chat with other players, get spoilers and much more!

[Dwarmin]

Looks interesting.

Downloading now...

[a1s]

So Jared,
Can you do anything about the patch for LOM1?
I can't download it at all.

Byez.

[JaredConway]

You can download the LOM1 1.54 patch from my website here: http://www.jjcwhodat.com/downloads/serveme.asp?id=3. It's about 2.7 MB.

Cheers!

Jared.

[a1s]

No I Can't. That's the problem. Well actually I can download something, but it's a 512KB file, that won't open. For reference: I found a link to the 1.53 patch on the forum. Same results. The LOM2 patch I can download. I did write all this in your forum, you know.

[JaredConway]

It should be fixed now. The copy of the file had become corrupt somehow...I've replace it with a working archive.

Sorry about that!

Jared.
